    We live in a fascist country now.

    “But there’s no mass graves.”

    Not yet. And it doesn’t matter. There isn’t just one flavor of fascism. There isn’t just extreme fascism or no fascism.

    This is a facist nation because it is behaving like a fascist nation. And it’s not going to get better unless voters start being more responsible. And it might even be too late for that.

        The article does not support your statement. Even if people have gone missing, the author doesn’t allude to a mass killing. I’m all for exposing ICE, but I’m also against creating misinformation or fueling rumors.

          …so they just disappeared into the system and we have no idea if they’re alive or dead? You know that’s only marginally better right?

            Not marginally, but quite the difference. There’s no need to be reductive just because you disagree and want to speculate.

          It’s probably not that quantity today, but read about that statement “Wir haben es nicht gewusst”. There were “rumors”, but most people just thought about their own lot instead of worrying about those rumors.

      Every fascist regime was established in democratic elections. No fascist regime was overthrown in democratic elections.
